What is a Comprehensive Photoluminescent Material Takeoff?

A comprehensive photoluminescent material takeoff (also known as take-offmaterial takeoff, or quantity takeoff) is the process of determining how much material is needed to install code-compliant photoluminescent egress path markings in high rise buildings.

What are Takeoffs used for?

Performing material takeoffs is an integral part of your project bid estimation process. Takeoffs are needed to accurately collect a comprehensive list of materials and the cost of each line item. This requires analyzing blueprints, drawings, and other design documents, and requires a high level of accuracy, and can be incredibly time-consuming.

Those not familiar with the takeoff process for photoluminescent egress path markings or those who have limited time and experience may find this step incredibly difficult and frustrating. Inaccurate takeoffs can result in ordering too much material which results in a loss of profit for your business; ordering insufficient material can result in project delays, rush shipping charges, and significant additional costs.

To avoid these scenarios, let American PERMALIGHT® perform your photoluminescent egress path marking takeoffs.

What is the Difference Between a Comprehensive Material Takeoff and a Quote?

Comprehensive Material Takeoff determines the amount of material needed to properly install photoluminescent egress path markings that comply with building code requirements and allow the building to obtain the necessary occupancy permit.

On the other hand, quotes use comprehensive material takeoffs as the basis of the quote plus incorporate all other costs the installer (contractor, subcontractor, or whoever will be doing the egress path marking installation) will encounter throughout the entire project. These additional costs include labor, tax, travel costs, tools, material waste factor, and other potential costs.

How Does American PERMALIGHT® Perform Comprehensive Material Takeoffs?

Here at American PERMALIGHT®, we use a combined manual and software-based takeoff process that utilizes the physical and digital architectural drawings provided by the project contact. This is a time-consuming process that involves a high level of focus, attention to detail, and experience from the professional performing the comprehensive material takeoff. 

We begin with a review of building drawings to determine scale. Next, a further detailed review is needed to determine the types of egress path markings that will be utilized for this project (perimeter demarcation, handrails, obstacles, etc.) and are calculated based upon their standard unit of measurement, which is typically linear feet (step count and step width, count of signs and doors/push bars).

We then match your project material needs from our complete selection in our PERMALIGHT® Photoluminescent Egress Path Marking System. We have multiple solutions to match the project budget and durability needs.
